Furious

The plot is fairly generic and the characters are essentially undeveloped. It's a movie where you know what to expect heading into it. My only issue was the voice overs. Half of the time a womans voice was for men, and would carry over to surrounding men in passing comments. It made much of the dialogue very confusing to track. This was on Prime, so possibly some versions are subtitled with the original audio (which would be preferable).

Well, i'm a Russian, and i'm from Moscow, Russia. I was born in USSR, 36 years ago. If you want to watch/listen to Russian "Bylina", then it's your choice. We, the Russians, remember his (Kolovrat's) Choice, his Heroic Deed (podvig). BUT. But this movie does't have anything to do with historical events (as we do know 'em). It's some sample of "hollywood" "action", brought to the Russian reality. My post is not about his deed, his self-sacrifice, but about historical reality. He did, what he did. Many of us would do the same nowadays. We just don't stand any lies, any interference in our lives. We don't like when anyone downplays our enemies. We don't like, when anyone displays our Heroes as comics characters (some stupid idiots like spiderman, whatsoever you may think). The problem of this movie is that it has too much pathos and it's doesn't have anything with, well, "historical reality". If you want to watch some (at least) good historical movies, then watch old "I na kamnyakh rastut derevya", or "Pathfinder"(1987!!! not that recent crap!).

I enjoyed this film about an amnesic soldier hell bent on revenge. It gets a 7 star rating from me mostly because the english translation was broken and it hindered my ability to understand all that was taking place. Even with that barrier, I still understood most of what was going on and I liked what I was seeing. One thing that really helped out was how beautiful some of the camera and CGI work was. I'm glad I checked it out.

It is nice to hear stories about Russia and what they had to do. This movie was well made good acting and you can tell they spent some money on it. I highly recommend it. It is a great story and it is base on true facts which is Leary's good to know

The movie maybe isn't perfect in some historical facts, but still much better than this piece of s**t called Viking. It has some similarities to "300" and "The Patriot" but is still something original to watch.
